HUMMUS WITH MUSTARD SAUCE

What I love from this hummus with mustard sauce is the combination of the creamy and soft hummus with the strong flavor of the sweet mustard sauce.
Combined with the baked carrots it feels like a proper meal, usually hummus is kind of snack but adding the carrots to, it just feels amazing.

I love to have this hummus with a good bread, so what I love to do is making myself a proper toast, I warm the bread in the oven and the I usually add some of the hummus with mustard sauce and baked carrots and it is so incredibly delicious.
